## Description

Skull Ornament with Snake is a metal ornament in witchy, gothic style, about 12 x 13.5 x 11.5cm.

The skull is the memento mori of Victorian and medieval art, a reminder to live fully, and a symbol of the ancestors at Samhain and the Day of the Dead.

It is cast in resin and hand-painted, which keeps it light and allows fine detail; display it indoors.

From the maker: Add a hauntingly beautiful touch to the home with this skull-shaped ornament. Featuring a realistic, intricate skull design with a serpent weaving its way through the eye socket, creating a statement and dramatic presence in any space.

Size: approximately 12 x 13.5 x 11.5cm, weighing about 325g. Allow for small variations between batches.

## Traditions (belief, not health claims)

Each symbol carries its folklore: black cats were witches' familiars, the raven was Odin's messenger, the skull is the memento mori reminder to live fully, and the pentagram stands for the five elements in modern paganism. Witchy and gothic style borrows from British folk magic and the Victorian Gothic Revival: black cats, ravens, skulls, moons and pentagrams. These are traditions and beliefs, described for interest, not health or medical claims.

## How to use

- Mix with candles, dried flowers and books for an all-year gothic shelf.
- Build a seasonal Samhain or Halloween display.
- Gifting idea: ritual tools are personal; a gift card or a note inviting the recipient to choose can be just as welcome.
- Care idea: wipe tools after each ritual so wax, ash and water marks don't build up.
- Reading idea: a cloth laid out before a tarot reading marks the start of a focused session.

## Care

- Dust with a dry cloth; keep metal pieces dry.
